@tomatoslayers.bsky.social does it again! This article a/b #conversiontherapy is both insightful & powerful. I’m so grateful to have my voice included (& to see my friend @chelseaebin.bsky.social included as well!). Share w/ your networks, if the queer spirit leads! therevealer.org/we-need-to-t...

So incredible to see the @irms.bsky.social Impact Report out in the world. Also cannot believe it’s been six years since I made our first (admittedly very crummy) website while sitting on my palm tree print bedspread in Orlando, FL. Impact report here: static1.squarespace.com/static/63641...

I keep seeing people say, oh, trans people must take a hit for the greater good and, first of all, no, you don't get to discard someone else's rights and second, we know from past experience that marginalized communities like theirs are merely the first to be targeted. They'll come for you next.

Very excited to be in conversation with @joelowndes.bsky.social at the Institute for Public Knowledge at NYU on November 17th! RSVP at the link. ipk.nyu.edu/events/book-...

Andrew Cuomo has nothing to offer New York, so he’s resorting to racist, classist, and anti-Muslim fear mongering. It’s long past due for Cuomo to learn that no means no.

It was such a pleasure to be in conversation with @julieingersoll.bsky.social and @matthewdtaylor.bsky.social for Political Research Associates. You can read our conversation here: politicalresearch.org/2025/10/15/i...

🧵🧵 Texas Republicans have been increasingly open and aggressive about Christianizing America via schools - to, in the words of the state education board chair, center classrooms around "GOD, GOP & USA." That fight just escalated, and you should pay attention - because your state could be next.

separate from everything, the idea that 2020 was a squeaker but 2024 represents a historical mandate will simply be the death of me

*The Trump administration has defied or frustrated the court in more than one third of the 165 cases where the courts have ruled against them. *Since April, SCOTUS has granted relief to Trump in all 15 of the emergency applications, writing a decision to explain its reasoning only three times.

No one.

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

The UFW can confirm farm workers were critically injured yesterday during chaotic raids in Ventura County, CA. Other workers, including US citizens, remain unaccounted for. UFW staff is on the ground supporting impacted families. Our full statement below. ⬇️ 1/

“‘AI is the new information arms race, just like social media before.’ Gab has since launched a series of chatbots on its platform, including one programmed to mimic…Hitler, as well as its default chabot, Arya, which Torba has boasted ‘is purpose-built to reflect a…pro-Christian worldview.’“ 1/

Came home to find this had arrived, and I am SO excited to dig in. Massa’s work has been so formative for my understanding of Catholicism in the U.S., and I’m so happy to see he’s written this book.

Read this piece on the "pro-family politics" of the New Christian Right excerpted from @chelseaebin.bsky.social's The Radical Mind, out now from @univpressofkansas.bsky.social. politicalresearch.org/2025/05/15/p...

The @nytimes.com is truly reaching new lows.First, with this article, and secondly, with this sorry attempt to justify race-baiting the Democratic candidate for NYC major that relies on a “tip” from a eugenicist.

ICE is now changing tactics and arresting people who have been granted asylum hearings.   This is both a violation of US & international law that demands immediate attention from all New York elected officials & underscores the urgent need for legal service providers to be at all of these cases.

“No right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates.” –Justice Sonia Sotomayor. One of the most chilling sentences I have ever read.

What the SCOTUS ruling amounts to is a blank check to an already lawless regime to do whatever it wants with the rest of us. We no longer have even the pretense of meaningful recourse.

If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until *now* to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.

Today I learned they made an audiobook of my book The Radical Mind. You can get it on Audible and GooglePlay and maybe some other places. www.audible.com/pd/B0F3R2MZH...

Good to see Comptroller Brad Lander walking the walk at the immigration courts in NYC accompanying folks out of the building.

In an excerpt from her book, The Radical Mind: The Origins of Right-Wing Catholic and Protestant Coalition Building, ‪@chelseaebin.bsky.social‬ breaks down how Reagan's Family Policy Advisory Board (FPAB) cultivated the New Christian Right in the 80s. Learn more: ow.ly/TEIm50VVYjg.

Even if you (wrongly) believe that some immigrants lack due process rights, what’s to stop the government from claiming that *you* are an undocumented immigrant; removing you to El Salvador; citing an “administrative error”; and refusing to do anything to bring you back? The answer is due process.

Nice to be in streets with so many folks who recognize that the U.S. is in such deep trouble.

A federal judge in NY has blocked any effort by the Trump administration to deport Mahmoud Khalil – whose arrest and imminent deportation Trump celebrated on Turth Social today — until further proceedings play out. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Your daily reminder that it is never and never has been about “saving the children” for the GOP.

Tomorrow in NYC will be sunny & pleasant. This will be important.

Thinking about the Palmer Raids today. Also thinking about the last time I taught that 1st Amendment jurisprudence evolved to protect political speech+that immigrants receive 1st Amendment protections and want to apologize to my students for having lied to them. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmer_...

Who would’ve guessed that reading all of Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt’s work in grad school would turn out to be so helpful in parsing Adrian Vermeule’s “common good constitutionalism”? Am so angry that I have to let these people live in my brain rent free in order to analyze our current predicament.
